How do you get arceus?

Additional Details:
Ah great, just know, after reading your response, i tried and now the game says it is having problems communicating with wfc. but it doesn't show an error code anywhere so i'm a little bit freaked

Additional Details:
The servers were probably just full, it's fine now, though. The problem with asking for an arceus would mean i would have had to have seen one first, but if i had, then i wouldn't have posted this question. for example: since i have never seen deoxys in this game, i can't ask for one. any other suggestions?

Additional Details:
The only flaw with the AR thing is i lost the pc cord T_T, so I would have to put in ALL of that information by myself. I get aggravated at 20 liners, but THAT thing is a beast of a code. I appreciate your help though, and i will try to do it.

You can't get Arceus in any legitimate way in Heart Gold or Soul Silver. There was an event that took place in Platinum, where an Arceus with the original trainer TRU could be obtained however, that event is over. If you really want one, though, try the trade boards. I hope I helped! Good luck!

Hm...Check yor Wi-Fi router. If you recently got a new DS, you need to enter a code if it is locked to renew the connection. Sometimes, my Wi-Fi just decides to stop working. It can be frustrating, but the next day, it's fine. It's strange how it doesn't show an error code though. Maybe ask for some assistance on the regular boards? I'm sorry, I don't know a lot about this kind of stuff. I hope your Wi-Fi works soon!

If you have an AR, Here is a code for HeartGold and SoulSilver that will provide you with several event Pokemon, all in English and legitimate. The Pokemon provided through this code are a Toys "R" Us Shaymin, GAMESTOP PIKACHU-COLORED (SHINY) PICHU, a 10th Anniversary Mew, a Gamestop Jirachi, a Celebi distributed at the "Pokemon Journey Across America" event in 2007, and a Toys "R" Us Arceus. They will activate their in-game events. To use the code, copy & paste into your Action Replay & transfer the game being updated (HG or SS) over to your AR hooked up via PC (instructions for all that come with the AR and can also be found on their official website). Start the game with AR code activated and MAKE SURE the first 6 slots of box 18 are EMPTY, otherwise this code will overwrite any pokemon you had saved there! Press L+R together and the 6 event Pokemon will be found occupying the first six slots of Box 18 in your PC. This code has been tested on both HG & SS and is guaranteed to work (unless your AR doesn't recognize the game, which is an issue you need to resolve yourself, likely because you don't have the correct master code).
